Nissan Motor has launched the “all-new” Teana in Japan where it reaches showrooms on 5 February.
According to just-auto’s Production Life Database, this global model first went into production back in 2012 in two plants in the US where it is sold as the Altima and also exported to the Middle East. It’s also built- with a stretched wheelbase option – by the Dongfeng-Nissan joint venture in China. Thai production started in September 2013 and cars are shipped to Australia as the Altima. Thailand is also the source of the new Japanese market version.

Nissan has an annual sales target of over 600,000 units in more than 120 countries and of those, around 400,000 are made in the US.
While Australia gets the 3.5-litre V6 carried over from the predecessor Maxima-badged line, Japan is getting its new Teana with the 2.5 inline four also offered in the US and China mated to Nissan’s Xtronic branded CVT automatic transmission.
The Japanese market gets crash avoidance support technologies similar to those in Nissan Europe’s new Qashqai such as around view monitor (AVM) with moving object detection (MOD) while blind spot warning (BSW) and lane departure warning (LDW) systems are optional.
The Japanese sales target is 520 units a month.
